Going to sound corny but the things that made the most difference to my life... * Getting a good nights sleep. * Becoming "minimalist by divorce" in 2003. * Finally understanding true wealth is having enough. * Learning how to ram down expenses while maximizing my Real Hourly Wage. * Going for a 40 minute walk every day. * Realizing for me happiness is strongly correlated with level of personal freedom (not the fake freedom you hear about in the "land of the free"). Read "How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World" by Harry Browne for more details. * Learning to stop mulling on negative thoughts and either throwing them out forever or turning them into a positive action plan. * Learning from "mistakes". For example, what I learned about money after going broke in 2006 resulted in financial freedom today. * Traveling is like holding up a giant mirror on your lifestyle and beliefs. A fish in water doesn't notice water until it's yanked out of it. * After being homeless I learnt to be more empathetic. People with no empathy have not yet suffered. * Most people want love but don't give love freely first. If you want to be loved, love. * Appreciate the little things. Until you can do this you will always be agitated. * Understanding the Money Road is a dead end. * I've driven a Cobra with a V12 Jag engine, a heavily customized Datsun 240Z, and a 1969 MGB GT, but the most fun I ever had was in my first car, a Singer Chamois, which I got for £30 from my Grandfather. Why? She was my first love and a temperamental bitch! * If it's not fun and there are few other advantages to it, stop doing it!
